Rain's Thursday Art Date - Calla Lily

For Rain's Thursday Art Date's 'Easter' theme, I am showing these pink Calla Lilies I did for an Instagram challenge earlier this year for @alexandrasillos. It is done on cardstock (4 1/4" x 5 1/2") in permanent markers.

Well our Walmart online grocery delivery was cancelled without reason yesterday half an hour before its expected arrival.  We were so angry and disappointed.  It was our first and last time using their service.   I donned my mask and gloves and went to my usual grocery store.  It is what we will do from now on.  There was lots of toilet paper, kleenex, meat, albeit no flour.  The cashiers were behind plexiglass screens and there were social distance markers indicating where we should stand in line.  It was not very crowded at the time and I was happy to get stocked up with groceries.

At the Grocery Store

This is my boneless brown sugar pork shoulder roast straight out of the oven.  I was inspired by a Costco sample of a brown sugar pork leg roast the other day.  Apologies to the vegetarians!

So I was at the grocery store the other day.  This lady and I had finished paying for our groceries and we were packing our stuff into bags as the final process.  The lady says to me 'I hate this part, I don't mind doing the actual shopping for the items'.  I said 'yes, where are our husbands when you need them (I was assuming she was married)'.  She considers for a bit and says 'my husband is a paraplegic.  He fell in the kitchen and hit his chin.  It was a spinal injury.'  Shocked, I asked how long ago it happened.  She said it was 3 years ago, he was fit as a fiddle.  He is now in a wheelchair.  All I could say was 'you never know what fate has in store for you'.  She nodded and I went on my way.
